    <p>This is a library of policy-based elementary
    data structures: associative containers and priority queues. It
    is designed for high-performance, flexibility, semantic safety,
    and conformance to the corresponding containers in <tt>std</tt>
    and std::tr1 (except for some points where it differs by
    design).</p>
